Abstract: An electronic control module includes an EMI baffle in the form of openings formed in laterally spaced portions of a cold plate (60) supporting the electronic circuits (20,28,49). Preferably, upper and lower plates (62,64) of the cold plate define a limited access baffle chamber with openings that require rerouted travel of any leakage radiation emanated by terminals or conductors carried by couplers inserted into the cold plate openings (86) or passing through the openings. Preferably, each coupler (14,22,32,42) is inserted through openings (86) having an inlet axis in the cold plate (60) and the module packaging covers (62,64) are secured to the cold plate (60) between an inlet and an outlet opening in the cold plate (60). Accordingly, simple gaskets may be used to seal the covers (62,64) against the cold plate (60) and the couplers (14,22,32,42) against the cold plate. Moreover, the cold plate coolant passage has inlets and outlets that remain exposed exteriorly of the covers to avoid exposure of the internal circuitry to leakage.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un modulateur optique intégré du type Mach-Zehnder, comportant un guide d'ondes sur une partie de sa longueur, divisé en deux sections (11, 12) disposées selon un ordre logique et parallèles. La lumière incidente est scindée de manière à traverser les deux sections (11, 12) puis recombinée avant de quitter le modulateur. Chacune des sections comporte une paire d'électrodes (13, 14 et 14, 15) leur étant associées, produisant un champ électrique que traversent les susdites sections, cependant il peut n'y avoir qu'une unique électrode (14) placée entre les deux sections (11, 12) et constituant l'une des électrodes de chacune des paires, l'autre électrode de chacune des paires étant raccordée à l'autre électrode de l'autre paire. La configuration de la section (11) et de ses électrodes (13, 14) diffère de celle de l'autre section (12) et de ses électrodes (14, 15), si bien que les champs électriques auxquels sont soumis les deux sections (11, 12) du guide d'ondes sont différents lorsqu'on applique une même tension aux électrodes (13, 14, 15) associées aux sections du guide d'onde. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, le modulateur comprend un modulateur d'amplitude (30) suivi d'un modulateur de phase (31).

Abstract: A method for designing to optimize a capacitor
structure (channel length L, channel width W and number of
division n) in a MOS transistor, in which the capacitor
has a capacitance C and a gate-channel resistance R. A
period from rising of a potential of a gate electrode to
rising of potential of a diffusion layer is assumed as t2,
a capacitance per unit area is assumed as K1 and a
resistivity of the gate channel is assumed as K2 (S1), a
period for propagating potential from a center portion of
the gate channel to the end of a diffusion layer is
assumed as t1 which is expressed by t1 = 0.55 CR (S2).
Then, from  C = K1 · LW (S2) , and  R = K2 ·L/W (S3) ,  t1 =
0.55 K1 · K2 · L 2  (S4) . Assuming  t1 = t2 ,  L = {t2/0.55K1 ·
K2} 1/2    is calculated (S5, 6), and  W = C/K1 · L  is
calculated (S7). From the capacitor region, a maximum
value Wmax of the channel width is determined (S8) to
derive number of division by rounding up the fraction
below decimal point of quotient of W/Wmax.

Abstract: The method involves forming the probability density function of a code word by dividing the code word into phonemes and folding their probability density functions together by phoneme. The threshold is formed by bounding the surface area beneath a probability density function in a defined manner and parallel to the ordinate, whereby the resulting abscissa value is used as the limit of the threshold value. The distribution of the phonemes is approximated to a standard distribution, i.e. a Gaussian distribution.

Abstract: Using a sole Nox sensor Nox concentration and oxygen
concentration are measured accurately. A measurement device
for measuring NOx concentration and oxygen concentration
comprises an NOx sensor (2) having a first measurement chamber
(20) communicating via a diffusion rate regulating layer (4d) with
the gas under measurement and a second measurement chamber (26)
communicating with the first measurement chamber (20) via
diffusion rate regulating layers (6d, 22d). A first pump cell (4)
and an oxygen concentration measurement Vs cell (6) are formed
on the first measurement chamber (20), while a second pump cell
(8) is formed on the second measurement chamber (26). Inside of
the first measurement chamber (20) is controlled to a constant
low oxygen concentration by controlling the first pump current
(IP1) so that output of Vs cell (6) will equal a reference voltage
VC0. By applying a constant voltage across the second pump
cell (8) NOx in the second measurement chamber (26) is decomposed
to pump out oxygen. Thus NOx concentration and oxygen
concentration are measured from the second pump current (IP2)
and from the first pump current (IP1), respectively. During
measurement, sensor temperature is detected from the internal
resistance of the Vs cell for controlling heater current
supplied to heaters (12, 14) to maintain a constant sensor
temperature.

Abstract: The device has a circuit for noise signal suppression of the video signals. The circuit uses a motion adaptive filtering arrangement with a transversal filter of second or higher order, controlled by a motion detector. A multidimensional motion detector, containing a forward and backward motion detector, generates forward and backward movement signals which are combined to form a common motion signal. The coefficients for controlling the transversal filter are derived from the transversal filter.
